Description Washington is experiencing a dramatic increase in the amount and types of oil transported by rail.

Information on the time, location, volume, and type of oil transferred in the state is essential to providing a rapid, aggressive, and well-coordinated response to incidents involving oil trains.

Requiring the reporting of this information will improve our ability to plan for and respond to oil spills from rail cars, increasing the safety of the people and environment of Washington.
